First happy new year to all of you in the Knime community!
I tried to lock metanodes and components and I think that I found something weird:
when I lock a metanode I have the lock symbol that appear. This is not the case for the components
same, if I share both the locked metanodes and component and I reused them in a workflow; the linked metanode has the lock symbol but not the linked component.
Thanks for your answer. It is not a big problem and it could wait the next release. It is just that it is difficult to say if the component is locked without this symbol.
